Best rock album of the decade so far?

I'm torn between Like Clockwork or Royal Blood.

More about the instruments than vocals to me. I'm old school in that I prefer singing, but love the music that comes with the growling territory.

everyone loves a good growl every now and then

Hey so why is the nation's premier tennis stadium named after a homophobic old campaigner like Margaret Court, anyway?

It's called Margret Court Arena actually, so it's tautological as well as unworthy.

she was handy with the racquet in hand. 24 single slams, 68 slam titles all up including doubles and mixed, 192 careeer titles. the greatest record ever in womens tennis.

the fact she is one of these evil hardcore christians doesn't come in to it.

It's the choice between a grand final in a sport I don't like very much or the stupidest version of a sport I like a lot. Hmm.

Twas the highlight of the Australia Day game for me.

Mr PK is in charge of the remote, so in the background I have alternating 'cricket' and tennis

I'm torn between Like Clockwork or Royal Blood.

Tough one, but I reckon Black Ice edges out Rock or Bust, Def Leppard, and The Circle.

To not be a parody of myself for a moment, I agree Royal Blood is pretty damn good.

Zakk Wylde JimmyBeerCans have you guys scene AC/DC's Live In Paris?

Recorded during the Highway to Hell tour, and a lot harder to come by than an official release should be, but if you like the Bon era live, that is pretty much their zenith.
